Chamber supports accidents producer cause The executive and directors of the Olds and District Chamber . of Commerce took sides in the Crow Rate issue during a_ meeting Tuesday afternoon. As a result of discussions at that meeting the following telegram was sent to Prime Minister Trudeau and Premier Peter Lougheed with copies. to Hon: Jean Luc Pepin, Gordon Towers M:P., Hon. Leroy Fjordbottem, Alberta’s Agriculture Minister and M.L.A. Stephen Stiles. destroy cabins Police believe ex- plosives were used to destroy two cabins and a barn. near’ the Forestry Trunk Road west of Sundre. Discovered late last week by Caroline trap- per Neil Radau, police speculate the buildings were destroyed within the past two months. They could have been bombed sometime in March or April, Sgt. Don Welke.of the Sun- dre RCMP said this week. He was unsure when interviewed what type of explosives were used and is waiting for a report on’ analysis perfored by RCMP ex- plosive experts. No motive for the blasts — have been determined. Radau discovered the remnants of Sundre trapper Hubert Jasman's cabin about three miles east of the Forestry Trunk Road before finding his own cabin in ruins, Welke said. Jasman’s cabin was completely levelled while Radau’s roof was blown off and the walls were pushed out. A burned-out barn was also believed to have been ignited by ex- plosives. Evidence is somewhat sketchy, owing to the time lapse between the explosions and their discovery, the sergeant said. A .The telegram read: “Regarding. the proposed change in Crow Rate, we, the Olds and. District Chamber of Commerce are opposed to the bill currently. before’ the House of Commons, in particular the payment of the full subsidy ‘to the railroads. We en- dorse the solution that Hon. Jean Luc Pepin introduced which would split the payments equally between the farmers and the railroads.” The position taken by the Olds and District Chamber of Commerce is the one favored by most ‘producers and commodity groups on the prairies and is the one which United Grain Growers endorsed early in. the Crow Rate debate.

We trust that she will have a speedy recovery and we. extend our best wishes." college trims staff The chairman of Olds College board of gover- nors gave assurance Tuesday that last week’s dismissal of two staff members does not signal the beginning of extensive cuts jn personnel. “This is not the be- ginning of a whole ser- ies of people cuts,”’ Don Robertson said of the dismissals of public relations officer Ida Stanley-Tober and student counsellor Don Scott. They were laid off as a result of shifts made in staffing where- in some positions were combined and others phased out, he told the Gazette. These changes were necessary in order to balance the college’s $11.4 million operating budget, he said. According to the chairman, when the annual budget formula- tion process began this year, requests from various departments added up to a $1.5 million deficit and ‘‘it became pretty obvious we'd have to get pretty close to the bone.” With salaries repre- senting about 70 per cent of the budget, the decision was reached to phase out four support staff positions, he in- dicated. The colllege, with a capacity student body expected in September, was not in a position to cut faculty, Robertson said. ‘‘Our principle responsibility is to edu- cate (the students) who ing come to us,’’ he explained. The cuts were tough on certain individuals, he grant- ed, but they helped bring the budget into balance. At least one of the budget casualties sounded still bitter over her dismissal when interviewed Monday. Stanley-Tober attribut- ed her dismissal to a personality conflict between herself and college President Dr. Dan Cornish. The two disagreed over the function of a public relations officer for a college, she said. At most college’s the public relations officer works closely with the president, as was not the case with her and Cornish, she indicated. She felt money could not be at the root of her dismissal and that some frills could have been cut instead of her job. Two persons were hired for the publicity branch to travel with the college’s events van, she said. With student registration at the maximum, she could see no reason for this form of publicity. She’d viewed the col- lege’s exhibition - which is displayed an- nually at the Calgary. Stampede and Edmon- ton’s Klondike Days - in the same light. These two projects cost .double Stanley- Tober’s $28,000 salary, she said. Robertson did not respond to Stanley- Tober’s statements except to say that he could understand the dismissed staff mem- ber’s bitterness. Robertson, referred to recent college history in explaining the new structure of the Learn- Resource Centre, from which the public relations position was cut. For the last two years, the LRC has been. studied with a view to cutting expens- es, he said. It was not needed, a position which was created several years ago when it appeared the library- resource centre project was imminent. The LRC chairman’s position has now been combined with that of information officer. This post is held by Barry Finkleman, for- mer LRC chairman. Also combined are the student counsellor and student activities co-or- dinator’s positions. A new person will hired to fill this role, Robertson said. Activi- ties co-ordinator Bev Sandalak has been of- fered a teaching sup- port position in an area in which she possess expertise. Also combined are two farmstead posi- tions, Robertson said. Phased out is a painter- foreman position; the person now holding this job will not be replaced when he retires this year. Robertson pointed out that provincial support was held to a five per-_ cent increase this year while the faculty asso- ciation’s recently- signed contract agree- ment results in a seven per cent increase in salaries (a five per cent salary hike plus incre- ments). Still to be ne- gotiated is a new one- year contract for sup- port staff who belong to the Alberta Union of Public Employees. The college will be carrying the same message to bargaining sessions with AUPE as was delivered faculty who were warned that a settlement over five per cent would necessitate cutbacks which could affect positions.
